3 out of 5 stars Fun roof

Apparently there's been some chipping on the the roof. Gave it a letter grade higher as a result.

4 out of 5 stars Slightly tricky roof

The approach to the roof is 5.7-5.8 The roof is definitely the hardest and funnest part of the climb. I think the roof is a 5.10a move other than that it is an easy climb. Did it clean first try :)
